Chapter 244 Repercussions
Chapter 244 Repercussions
Ever since Julian became an 'influencer' out of nowhere on the internet, the title of the 'JuSan Couple’ was widely accepted by the media.
The next day, all sorts of web portals and newspapers were posting headlines in succession.
'The JuSan Couple’s wedding of the century expose, the big reveal of Susan Shelby’s wedding jewelry.'
This was the headline that appeared on a tabloid page.
'The grand wedding of Lanyard Construction’s CEO, distinguished personages of the industries send their blessings.’
This was the headline that appeared on a strict official media outlet.
'Check out the photos of the wedding - you'll love it so much you'll wanna lick the screen.’
This was the headline posted by internet users.
Even though the wedding was over already, Julian declined real-time relay so the news articles were only posted the next day. The discussions of the public on this wedding of the century was raised to the climax the next day as well.
Whether it was the newspapers or internet pages, the hottest topic of the day was the JuSan Couple.
'Combining the photos from each news article and the real wedding photos, please allow me to estimate the total cost of Mrs. Shaw's wedding outfit.'
An internet user posted a thread in a forum that immediately drew in the curious people's attention.
'Firstly, let's look at the wedding gown. I don't know the exact value of the wedding gown, but it is universally acknowledged that the wedding gown is worth 10 million at the very least. We shall consider it as 10 million.'
'Then, there's the crown on Susan's head. The red ruby encrusted in the center of the crown is worth 50 million minimum while the crown is forged with topgrade jade which is estimated to be 30 million. The total value of the crown is 80 million.'
'Susan’s necklace is encrusted with alternating red rubies and diamonds. It's worth 30 million.’
'Also, there's the brooch. Don't think that the brooch looks inconspicuous. In history, this is the wedding gift given by the French king to his first wife. It is auctioned at 10 million...dollars.'
'The bangle is worth 10 million.'
'Lastly, her pair of flats cost the least. You can get it at 30,000. Isn't that a pleasant surprise? I suppose this is the only item that the fans can get that is of the same style as Susan’s wedding outfit. On the other hand, please allow me to digress. Regarding the issue with the shoes, it is said that the stylist recommended
Susan Shelby to wear a pair of high heels at the time and Susan agreed as well. However, CEO Shaw was worried that his wife would be on her feet for too long during the wedding so he insisted on changing it to a pair of flats. The source of this information came from CEO Shaw’s blog that contains all sorts of content that will make a single person weep. Read at your own risk. J
'The final part of the finale, please allow us to make a conclusion. Susan Shelby's wedding outfit cost a total of an estimated 190 million. It can only exceed this amount and not less. Mr. Shaw is extremely gallant in throwing this wedding just as expected.'
As soon as the article was posted, the comments section was filled with sorrowful wails.
'I worked hard for a lifetime and I still make less than what the brooch costs.’
'To the commenter above me, what the heck are you blabbering about? How is it possible that you can’t make enough despite working hard for a lifetime? Let me tell you this, you can't even make enough even if you work hard for eight lifetimes.' Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
'Awesome, it's a burn for the commenter above.’
‘The shoes look really nice too. I've decided that I'm going to purchase a pair too.'
'30,000 still feels really expensive...”
"I want to be reborn again so I can go after Mr. Shaw. D o you think that I can still make it in time?’
'Forget it, I don’t think that Mr. Shaw will take fancy in you either.' 'I feel that if you want to be reborn, it's best for you to b e reborn in Susan's belly. Whether it is a little prince o r a little princess, the child will certainly be loved by all as soon as it is born.' i
'That makes sense! I suddenly look forward to the birth of the little prince/princess. I wonder if the child is as good-looking as the parents.'
The internet users discussed and deviated from the topic of the conversation to the child in Susan's belly.
The post was upvoted to the top rapidly as well. It was in the limelight all at once, until the next post appeared out of thin air.
'Let's talk about the scrumptious courses served in the JuSan Couple’s wedding!'
'OP is fortunate enough to receive Mr. Shaw's invitation to take part in their wedding. Let’s not talk about all sorts of reveries and gallantries in the wedding nor the top-rated celebrities for the time
being. The only thing that was on the OP’s mind during the wedding feast was truly the table full of ultra scrumptious courses.'
'Everyone will think that I'm exaggerating so I'm going to share some photos immediately.'
Whoosh whoosh whoosh. A series of photos were uploaded.
They served everything under the sun including local and foreign dishes.
Moreover, every course looked so presentable that one felt like salivating just by looking at it, especially when the OP even captioned every photo.
'Look at these cocktail meatballs. Do you still remember the meatballs raining down from the sky in the movie, 'Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs?' This meatbail dish is adapted from the movie! The outside i s crisp and the inside is drenched in savory juice.
Take a bite of it and it's delicious beyond description. I t appears small and delicate but one can simply consume it in one bite. I wonder what kind of meat is used to make the meatbail. It's so tender that I want to fly with joy! There are a total of 24 meatballs served in a portion, but OP stopped eating after eating two meatballs. Why? Because the rest of the courses were truly too tasty!'
'This is foie gras with caviar. OP is not well-versed in such elegant courses, but I know that it is delicious, delicious, delicious. According to the explanation given by a tycoon from the same table, a small plate of caviar served on the table costs 10,000 Canadian dollars. Oh god, OP felt like eating money at the time.'
'This is a vegetarian course. It looks normal, doesn't it? However, the vegetable ingredients are really the best. It tasted crisp, refreshing, and fresh in one bite.’
'This looks like a foreign country's speciality course. I haven't even heard of that foreign country before but
the course is truly way too scrumptious.'
OP provided the information related to all 30 courses served at the wedding meticulously.
Then, OP explained about the beverages and desserts served.
Foodies were salivating from reading the post.
The jewelry post led with more upvotes originally.
However, the power of foodies was immense too. As soon as the post was published, the number of comments closed in on the jewelry post. A few hours later, it surpassed the jewelry post completely.
Countless foodies commented about how much they wanted to eat the food in the comments section.
On the internet, all sorts of posts related to the wedding of the century were still brewing.
With a grim expression, Charlotte Jenkins scrolled the page with her mouse, seated in front of the laptop.
JuSan couple, JuSan couple. Everywhere she went, it was all about the JuSan couple!
There was also news related to her wedding with Joseph Shaw, but those came from the media that her brother contacted in advance. Even if the rest of the media outlets mentioned it, they would be tossed into a corner as well.
In fact, there were even a few fearless tabloids that even compared these two weddings and taunted her incessantly.
The news articles described her wedding as:
'Comparing the brides' outfits, completely defeated.'
'Comparing the wedding venues, completely defeated.' 'Comparing the wedding feasts’ courses, completely defeated.’
'Comparing the details, completely defeated.'
There was still a large portion of malicious comments. All in all, she was completely defeated.
The more Charlotte read about these messy articles, the more furious she got.
Yet, these articles were telling the truth that she could not refute.
